We got ‘em!

We originally approached our AD in Dec. 2022 because we had reached a milestone in our lives that we wanted to celebrate. Rolex has always been a symbol of excellence in my mind. I always wanted to purchase my wife a datejust when the time was right to celebrate all of the sacrifice she had made for us to reach our goals financially.

When I reached out to our AD and met my sales associate I learned about the current state of affairs with waitlists and allocations. We ultimately agreed that we were ready and requested the pair of watches at the end of Feb. 2023.

We are thrilled with the arrival!

Here’s the incoming post and wrist shots:

Beautiful watches congratulations! How cool to pick them up together! I’ve been waiting a year for a GRNR and for a 41 OP for my sons 21st (August) and I have a funny feeling the AD is going to have them both for us on the same day…
